from "Right in Two" by Tool
Monkey, killing monkey, killing monkey Over pieces of the ground. Silly monkeys give them thumbs, They make a club And beat their brother... down. How they survived so misguided is a mystery. Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability To lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here
next word: mystery

Siren - I remember the Indigo Girls, but only one song - Closer to Fine
To Bobby ~ Joan Baez
I`ll put flowers at your feet and I will sing to you so sweet And hope my words will carry home to your heart You left us marching on the road and said how heavy was the load The years were young, the struggle barely had its start Do you hear the voices in the night, Bobby? They`re crying for you

Nooooo...! I know I've mentioned this before, and not to repeat myself (like this song will be repeating over and over in my head today), but we sang "The Age of Aquarius" in my third grade class's spring concert, practicing for weeks beforehand. Even now, I just can't hear it...or even read a stanza from it....without it getting stuck in my head.
Maybe this will get it out...I love this song, and its very strange video with the somewhat sweet ending, (although the video doesn't seem to exactly fit the song):
from "Fall Into Sleep" by Mudvayne
Dreams of mourning grief Dreams of disbelief Dreams of tragedy Dreams of our disease...to take us all away Dreams of fidelity Dreams of inner peace Dreams of loyalty Dreams of unity All gone All gone
Fall into sleep Fall into me I have a dream But nobody cares Nobody wants to listen

I have never heard of that Village People song before, Step. Too funny!
From one of Elvis' prettiest and most poignant songs, "Separate Ways". He and his wife were divorced the year after this was recorded.
There's nothing left to do but go our SEPARATE ways And PICK up all the pieces left behind us And maybe someday, somewhere along the way Another love will find us
next: pick

from "Countdown to Extinction" by Megadeth....an older song that still makes me sad every time I hear it.
Endangered species, caged in fright Shot in cold blood, no chance to fight The stage in set, now pay the price An ego boost don't think twice Technology, the battle's unfair You pull the hammer without a care Squeeze the trigger that makes you Man Pseudo-safari, the hunt is canned ...

Two Faced Preacher ~ Hank Williams
Send him back, send him back, where he was before, He's a two-faced man, and we don't want him here no more.

from "Tell Lorrie I Love Her", a tune Keith Whitley wrote for his wife, Lorrie Morgan. The only version that exists is a "scratch" vocal - an early demo of the song - that Keith recorded at his home, while he played the guitar. As I said in another thread, Keith died 22 years ago this week at the age of 33.
If I were adrift on the OCEAN A vessel with no sails or steam FLOATING aimlessly on the endless sea Hopelessly lost it would seem
If all of the fish in the water Could echo my last dying plea I know you might not understand it But here's what I want it to be
Tell Lorrie I love her Tell Lorrie I need her Tell her everything would be okay if I could just see her Tell Lorrie I love her Tell Lorrie I need her And if I leave this old world tell her she’s the only girl for me
next: float(ing)
